re: BCS: discussion and breakdown - UPDATED

I still think OSU might end up #3 tomorrow. They'll likely be #2 in at least 4 out of the 6 polls from what I could tell (Colley, Sagarin, Billingsley, and Wolfe) because their leads in those are so big from Bama.

Furthermore, Arky will not be #4 on average in the computers. They will be #5 or worse in 3 of them.

The question tonight will depend on how the voters place Okie State after the loss. If they get at least fully 4th in the human polls, they'll still remain ahead of an Arkansas that is likely more than 2 full spots behind in the computer rankings.

If LSU beats Arky and UGA, and OSU beats OU, then I don't think people will put OSU behind VT, Boise, or Stanford and they'll clearly be #3. Then it will come down to those for and against a rematch. If OSU gets a solid #2 in the computers (which is likely), they'll only need 25%+1 of the voters in both human polls to put them in over Bama.
